French Toast Bastard (2019)

Scotch Ale / Wee Heavy

Backwoods Bastard gets the 4-star breakfast treatment. Our bourbon barrel-aged Scotch Ale is introduced to maple syrup, cinnamon, and sweet vanilla for a decadent brunch-inspired sipper. Breakfast for dinner, anyone?

Another local pick up from North Penn Beverage crowler line. Yeah, liquid French toast. Cinnamon, vanilla, maple syrup. Sweet. Very good. Liquid diabetes in a glass. And I love it! 4.35.

Perhaps the best Founders beer ever! Cracked open the 2019 and still bursting with maple syrup and sweet brown sugar. Been holding on to this for a while - big thanks to Darron who shared with me.

My palette has officially changed. I can't handle this sweet stuff anymore. I need barrel heat. This is still really good but woulda made it to 5 caps a couple years ago

This is a wonder of maple brown sugary goodness and yes a touch of egg-like and breadiness which helps nail the French toast similarity. No alcohol burn, but the finish has a slight flat coke caramel, that I don’t care for

I had high expectations of this beer, and I was not disappointed. Tami usually does not care for Scotch ales but she says this one equals The Bourbon county in her palette
